Chapter 42 - The Crown Prince Holds Her
Her eyes were half closed when she heard Dongfang Jin say, "Quickly go to the palace and ask for the Imperial Doctor, just now the Second Miss of the General's House accidentally fell into the water and the First Miss tried to save her but sprained herself ...... Where is the guest courtyard within your House? Quickly, lead the way in front!"
The voice was calm and dignified, and those who heard it immediately did as he said, without the slightest hesitation or doubt.
It seemed that this sick Crown Prince was not useless, and had the temperament of a great General who was not disorderly in the face of danger.
An Qing Ran was picked up by Dong Fang Jin, she half opened her eyes in his embrace and met his scrutinising gaze.and closed them in shock.
In her mind, she was still wondering how she could be afraid of a child less than twenty years old when she was born again after all?
An Qing Ran felt a little guilty in her heart at the same time. Although she didn't know what kind of disease the Crown Prince had died of in her last life, she vaguely felt that she was bullying a sick person, which wasn't pleasant.
Thinking of this, she opened her eyes and said, "Let me go on my own!"
"If you can walk, is this crown prince idle?" Dongfang Jin's voice was low enough that only the two of them could hear it.
An Qing Ran coughed, her face was a little hot. Not good then she turned to the thought that it was a good thing she was only twelve years old, her body shouldn't weigh much.
So, she smiled a little: "Your Highness the Crown Prince, I'll be obliged then!"
"Cut the talk! There are some things that we can talk about after you are well!" The corners of Dongfang Jin's mouth pulled up in a slightly evil smile.
An Qing Ran was shocked, she had no grudge against him in her last life, and she did not want to get involved with him in this life. Just one Dongfang Ye was enough for her to deal with, she didn't want to involve herself in the battle between their royal families. Not to mention, if she owed him any favours, how would she repay him if he died young?
The thought of it brought a sudden hint of forbearance to her face. Now, for the unforetold, she felt not exactly a reward from heaven, but also a hint of heaviness.
Seeing her little face suddenly darken, Dongfang Jin raised an eyebrow: "What? Do you feel a little sorry for me?"
"No." An Qingran said quickly.
"Oh, and what exactly were you thinking?"
"I was wondering if the Crown Prince would attend such a party too? It's not boring, there are kids everywhere!"
"How old do you think you are?" Dongfang Jin suddenly came closer, a handsome face right above hers, and was just about to say something when the door knocked behind them, and Qin Xiangning and two other servant girls walked in.
Qin Xiang Ning gracefully stepped forward and bowed: "Chen Nu has met the Crown Prince ......"
"Extraordinary times, no need to be polite!" Dongfang Jin said indifferently.
Qin Xiangning immediately stepped forward and looked at An Qinran with a puzzled look on her face: "Miss An, something like this happened in such a good time. It's all because of Xiangning's carelessness! That's why it happened!"
When she looked at her, An Qingran didn't know how she had made friends with An Yanran, what was going on behind their backs, and she couldn't help but be suspicious. These young ladies of large families, who do not leave their homes, already know whether the wind is blowing southeast or northwest. At this moment, for some reason, she did not go to see An Yanran, but came to her bedroom!
Did the news that her Yiniang fell out of favour spread already? It shouldn’t be… The matters of An Fu’s weren’t such big occurrences. Why would the rumour spread so fast?
Thinking of this, she spoke, "Miss Qin, don't blame yourself, it was our sisters who were careless that made this happen. If you are like this, I blame myself even more in my heart!"
